LOL! Lexi, I'm feelin' ya on this one. I get the EXACT same attitude from some people. I was born in Africa but was raised in Britain. I have dual nationality. I can say ''I'm African'', but then I get those who say ''You don't really look African (Because I'm light skinned!! I can pass for birracial unless I've been in the sun too long), you don't sound African you lived in UK for years, you're British''. When I say I'm British, I get ''You don't look British, you weren't born here, you're name is foreign, you're African''. Grrrrr!!! It does my tits in. It's never in a racist light, I'm lucky to have encountered minimal racism in all my years, but it's just plain annoying.
Now I don't know why I posted this too, I guess because you guys were airing similar experiences![]()
